there are two types for the bravos,the standard one has the aluminum insert and the heavy duty has the steel insert.the standard works perfect for most applications.

I was told by my engine builder not to use the steel insert for a normal application. Ive got warmed over hp500's and i use the aluminum.

Beware of used couplers on e-bay. I have been stiffed at least twice. One was advertised as in new condition.
Use the spline grease, and clean and inspect any used coupler and install with Merc. factory alignment tool. BBB
